The Karate Kid

Didn’t want to catch this movie at first coz I dun really like one of the actors inside. But I have heard so much positive reviews abt it and thus decided to check it out.

Worth my time and money and did not regret watching it.

A funny yet heartwarming movie I would say.

I’m not very sure why, but I cried right at the start of the movie. And though I laughed at some of the funny scenes, yet I cried for many of the scenes too.

I won’t say what are the scenes that made me cry as there are some others who have yet to catch this movie.

But I really cried a lot. Well maybe it is coz that I can actually feel how the boy felt. Coz I was once in a similar position. Just that I was not being bullied anyway.

However, it is really not easy to adapt to a new environment. Especially if you have to start to do so when u are at an older age. The younger you start, the easier you can adapt. I’m lucky that I didn’t start too late and I am already part of where I am now.

If you have yet to watch, you may want to catch this movie. :)

Date Set

Met up with our Master on 10 May 2010 and he explained to us things on weddings. Preparations, what to do at which date, the customary etc.

Anyway we were given a list of dates based on our requirements -- weekends, first half of rabbit year except cny mth, 3rd mth which is qing ming jie, and 6th mth which my parents felt that happy things shouldnt be done in 6th mth if not it will be 'half way' only, not complete not good.

And so we have chosen our big day date... 22 May 2011.

May is gonna be OUR month!!!

Our dating anni is on 27 May and our big day will be 22 May! :)

Anyway lubby is still having his exam, last paper on our dating anni day! So I've been doing the emailing to different hotels and restaurants.. and our first choice long ago is still our first choice now. Though that guy who replied our email like very blur.. ask him q he like nv ans and still address me as 'Kenneth'.. -_-

Will arrange to meet up with him at our first choice place after lubby's exam and see if we can have our ROM + lunch there...

Anyway I just hope that I can keep it small and simple.. not coz we are stingy.. but rather we do not want a big and complicated wedding, we prefer to have a simple gathering with all our close frens and relatives. To make it more personal.

Anyway dun expect performance such as 2x marching in, going up to cut the wedding cake, pour champange, yum seng on stage, brothers or sisters performing (well if brothers and sisters or frens wanna perform sumthing for us, we dun mind.. keep it a surprise! hahahaha).. it will just be a simple ROM ceremony, followed by a simple lunch.

Let's hope we can have a wedding that we want. :)

4 Days MC

I was on 4 days MC from Tue to Friday.

On Tue morning, I wasnt feeling very well.. migraine and giddiness. Went to see the doc in the morning and had one day mc.

My situation got worse as time passed. Couldnt eat anything. Just feel like vomitting. And by evening, I was suffering. Suddenly, I couldnt control my limbs at all. My hands and legs and whole body, from toes up till the eyes, were numb. My fingers were all closed up and I was not able to open up my hands! I was dammmmnnnn scared la.... I tot sumthing was going to happen to me... I couldnt control but kept crying. And I think I scared my mum and my brothers too. :x As I couldnt walk, my mum had no choice but to call for home doc, who arrived at 7+pm. He said that I was having hyperventilation. He gave me a jab which stopped me from puking and asked me to rest. He then gave me MC for Wed and Thur. Lubby rushed down to see me and I was happy to see him. Sumhow I felt a little better.

On Wed, my migraine didnt seem to get any better. Giddiness, severe headache and vomitting feeling still got stuck with me. I was bed ridden for the 2nd day and couldnt do anything. Just by walking to toilet could make me feel damn sick. Lubby took half day leave and accompany me. As my headache didnt go away and even got worse, my mum brought me to see the doc again, who then changed another type of med for me.

On Thursday, the pain was STILL there. I still couldnt eat much, I still felt like my head was going to explode! I really couldnt take it anymore and my mum brought me to the doc AGAIN and doc gave me a jab to stop the pain. And then MC for Friday. Thursday night lubby came to see me and whenever I saw him I would feel a bit better.

On Friday, I was recovering. FINALLY. I could walk ard the hse a little. Started talking to mum a little more. Started to eat more. And headache LESS but still there. By dinner time, I was pretty ok and could still 'say' my dear as complained by him.

Though these 2 days I am still recovering and dun feel that good but at least Im no longer suffering. I started going out yst and it was not easy. I couldnt adapt to the moving objects, people, lights and glaring sun. However, todae I'm much better already.

The past 4 days were the worse time in my life. I have never been on MC for such a long period and I felt very bad for worrying my loved ones. I just hope that migraine will leave me and wun bother me. Anyway I think I will consult chinese doc for my migraine. Anyone has any chi doc to recommend? esp for arcupuncture?

Meet The Parents Session

Finally, my parents met lubby's parents today.

It was a planned lunch at Paramount restaurant. Dim Sum lunch.

Before the lunch, I was starting to feel a bit nervous in the morning. haha. coz it's the first time they meet ma...

Anyway the lunch was ok though the parents of both sides were a little quiet.. think they dunno wat to tok abt... a bit awkward... but still arite...

So now, what we are going to do next is to find a master and choose our dates. And then start to shortlist more suitable ROM venue.

And then inform the bridal shop abt ur date and plan out photoshoot date..

SO EXCITED!!!

Trying Out New Restaurants

Have been reading blogs and reviews online on good food places.

Went to try out 2 of them.

One is Riders Cafe at Bukit Timah Saddles Club. It is at a super ulu place which u can either take a taxi or drive there. If you wanna take bus and walk there.. forget it.. u will not be able to find it.. hahaha.. anyway had brunch there with frens on Sat morning. The breakfast we tried are pretty gd. The Riders Breakfast consists of 2 eggs, sausages/hams/bacons, baked beans, grapes and toasts. According to frens and my dear who had that, the set was not bad. I had morning pancakes.. SUPER nice la! I'm not really a fan of pancakes.. for eg when I have pancakes in Mac, usually after eating 1 piece I wun wanna continue coz sumhow there is this weird flour taste... However the pancakes at Riders Cafe are GOOD! 3 thick pieces of pancakes stacked up with whipped cream (I din take tat though), raspberry and not very sweet maple syrup.. superb! really v nice.. tat even at this time I feel like eating again.. Will definitely go back for the pancakes again! We also ordered buffalo wings to share.. the sauce was just nice, and the meat was tender.. another thumbs up!

Another place tat I tried was Cafe De Hong Kong at Balestier Road Eastpac Building. Went there twice in a week. The first time was just lubby and me. We had beef brisket noodles, beef fried rice, french toast and pork chop. The beef brisket noodles soup was great.. but I feel that the noodles was a bit too hard. The french toast was one of the best I have ever eaten. To our surprise, there were peanut butter in the thick toast! And the pork chop was nice! It was in small pieces which were not oily at all and the meat was so tender that lubby couldn't stop eating!

And guess what, we went back to Cafe De Hong Kong on Sat night with frens again for dinner. :) This time round we ordered other food. The cripsy roasted chicken was not bad. The skin was very thin and cripsy. However I think they used frozen chicken and thus there were 'blood' near the bones. The You Mai Cai fried with garlic was simple yet everyone likes it. We also ordered the Cai Pu minced pork fried egg.. omg.. the egg actually 'melted' in ur mouth! The coffee pork ribs were sumthing worth mentioning too! The coffee flav was quite thick, yet not bitter but sweet. For a non-coffee person like me actually like that dish! :) The mushroom and fish soup was jsut so so and nuthing special. And of coz we ordered the pork chop and the french toast too! :) WAs a very full dinner and it only cost us abt $14 per pax with a big fat stomach! :D

Anyway lazy to upload photos.. pls just go to my FB to see.. :)

Weak Like a Jelly

My stomach has not been feeling gd since last Friday. Sat got worse. Tummy ache was on and off and I couldn't stand straight. Sunday was a bit better and then got worse in the evening.

Monday went to see doc and stayed home to rest. Doc said it was stomach flu. And coz of that, I missed one of the training. :( I wanted to go for that training coz it's on early childhood, sumthing tat I like and once wanted to take part time dip on...

Anyway Tue I went back to work and then tummy pain like siao in the evening after dinner. Went to see doc at night.. Gosh.. doc biz was sooooooo gd. It was like 9+pm and the que number of 76 while my que number was 87! I waited for abt an hr before being able to go into the room finally.

Had Mc todae.. and it was terrible! Morning woke up, run toilet, take med and back to slp. All the way till 12+pm and woke up for 2 soup spoons of porridge and a bit of steam fish. End up wanting to vomit and threw up some water. Went back to slp again till 4pm. Finally managed to eat a bit and dun feel as bad.

And todae I missed another course! :(

But anyway I am finally feeling like a human again.. was like a jelly the whole day... couldnt walk, couldnt talk.. and all I could do was slp slp slp and slp.

Hope I will be ok soon! Long wkend is coming and I have plans! I MUST GET WELL!!!!

Exercise

I used to exercise much more than now.. swim during lunch hour, gym during lunch hour, jogging after work, badminton, cycling... almost at least 3 times per wk. But ever since I joined my current workplace, I hardly exercise. Because there was no WAH anymore.. and because by the time I reached home after work, it's already so late and I'm already so tired and hungry.

Excuses.

Anyway, whateva happened today proved that my stamina has dropped and it's time to go back to my regular exercise lifestyle before I grow fatter and fatter as days go by...

I joined the vertical challenge at my workplace today. Climbing stairs. It SHOULDN'T have been any problem for me. I can easily climb up 16 storeies to my hse, even with big bags or in heels. BUT, I actually didn't feel well at all after climbing 8 storeies today! -_-'' I really couldn't believe it that I almost vomitted and felt couldn't breathe after the mini challenge. What is happening to me? I just climbed 16 storeies the other day and I was alright! And I think I know the reason behind it. It was a challenge, I was teamed up with my colleague, and we 'ran' up the stairs.. I hate it when I have to exercise according to other people's pace. That makes me feel really really uncomfortable after the exercise. If I can do the exercise according to my own pace, I wouldn't feel unwell at all after the exercise.

That is why I would prefer to do exercise such as jogging on my own. So that I can take my time to jog, so that I dun haf to follow other's pace, so that I wun feel like shit after the exercise.

In any case, I'm going to hit the gym soon as I've gotten myself a pair of new running shoes (old one spoiling already).

披荆斩棘

早上出门上班，下大雨。到达公司，就只有头和身体没有湿，双手双脚都湿透了。

回家在City Hall换地铁，不知为何City Hall地铁站的人群挤满了半个车站。平时不必等很久就会有车，但是今天却等了5分钟也没有车。于是决定搭去Raffles Place换车比较少人。在Raffles Place上了车，没想到却听见Dobhy Ghaut！错了！我应该听到的是Bugis啊~ 搭错车了。于是在Dobhy Ghaut下了车，再搭回去Raffle Place，再换车回家。

这样的事情很少会发生在我身上的，今天的我是怎么了？难道真的那么累吗？

就差一个地铁站就到了，怎知道从Bedok到Tanah Merah那短暂的路程，地铁不但漫到… …还中途停了4次！有没有搞错！

-_-

My New Love

Some time back, I walked past the Agnes B boutique at Wisma Isetan, saw a black poker dot bag, fell in love with it straight away and was tempted to get it.

A few days ago, Lubby said that he would buy that bag for me!

Went to see the bag on Thursday but was still deciding if I should get the bag. Din really want it coz it is not cheap. But Lubby kept tempting me... haha.

Went to see it again today. Tried on the A4 size one.. looked kinda big on me. Tried one size smaller, looked nicer, but a bit too small for everyday use. Then I saw this new arrival (which arrived 2 days ago, wasn't even in stall on Thursday when we went there.). Black, bling bling dots, and jsut the rite size for everyday use! And Lubby got me tat~ :)

And coz every $500 spent, you can get a free Agnes B bear... and after getting that bag, it's abt $145 away from that target. So I was thinking of getting the original soft soft material poker dot bag I wanted, but the smallest size. It's more for like going for dinner, or for a few hours shopping or for a meal etc. And furthermore I do not haf such size bag! Thus, I got it~ haha. Coz I really like that pattern also and then the Agnes B bear is pretty~

It comes with a 'necklace' for the bear, which is more like a bag charm, or a bracelet.. and the sole of the bear's foot... bling bling!!!

Love my new bags~~~ Adding on to my Agnes B collection.. hehe.. really love Agnes B bags more and more~ :)

The New Environment

I've been in my current new job for 3 mths plus. It's very very different from my previous job and so far I'm liking what I'm doing now.

I'm not a desk bound person.. and thus I always look forward to time when I can leave the office for visit. My current job scope requires me to go out for field work quite often and that is my favourite part. It is the 'going out' that keeps me motivated! haha.

Why is it so?

Simply because I LOVE children. When I go out for visit, I will get to see children. :) And maybe I will even get to talk to them. :)

Love it when children wave to me when they see me at their centre.

Love it when children come to me and talk to me when I am walking ard in their centre.

Love it when children come over to hold my hand or pull my finger to get my attention when I walk ard in their centre.

Love it when I get to see children having lesson, playing games, having their meals, taking their nap, running ard......

Children really brighten up my day, without fail.

When I went down to the centre for feedback visit, which means that might be some complicated issues invovled, which means more reports, which means dealing with parents and centre... this is the part which makes my work challenging.. and I dun like it because it can be very troublesome, it can drag on and on.. but at the same time I LOVE it too! because I get to extend my helping hand, and I may even get to talk to children and interact with them (if the nature of feedback requires me to do so...). And talking to them, chattin with them, is just soooooooo fun~~ and relaxing and happy! that's the part that I look forward to everytime. This is the part which makes my visit less tiring and more exciting! :)

Even now when I'm writing this entry, I recall incidents when I spoke to the children and how fun it was.. I recall there was this time when 2 girls 'fight' to sit on my lap while toking to me.. I recall when a little girl suddenly pulled my hand and told me 'you are very pretty'.. I recall when a little took a toy apple and brought over to me and told me 'apple'.. I recall when the shy children smiled at me... all these bring smile to my face right away!

Anyway, I hope that I can cope with my job and I can build up more passion... and hopefully these children can keep me motivated!!! :)

I really do not understand why some ppl HATE children so much...

Shopping at Queensway

Went for a last minute decision shopping at Queensway last night before movie 14 blades.

We have been looking ard for oakley shades... a sporty one for me and a casual one for lubby. Went to Taka and Vivo Oakley outlets and tried on a few.. but the prices were more expensive. So we decided to go to the Queensway shop which lubby bought his other 2 Oakley from.. and also my casual shades from...

And lubby found one dat is suitable for his face. funny thing is he tried the same model at Taka but it didn't look nice on him, but when he tried at Queensway, it looked nice on him! Maybe is coz they adjusted for him to suit his face... lubby wanted to order from US and den ship over but there wun be any warranty, though it would be abt $100 cheaper... but I felt that to have warranty is quite impt.. since he's gonna wear his sunglasses everyday when he drives.. thus we decided to get it in Sg in the end.

The shades I got for my dear~

Lubby's Oakley family.. his sporty shades, his prescription glasses and his casual shades.. :)

At first wanted to get the hot pink commit for myself.. but Queensway outlet doesnt carry it. And the lady also mention that brown is more natural and not too loud, and lubby worried that after a few years I might not like pink and wun wear, brown is more of an ok colour which would be better. Thus, I got the brown one.

This is the 2nd pair of Oakley Lubby got me~ :D

Walked ard Queensway and saw this Vans shoes.. saw it at Royal Sporting House few mths back and wanted to get but was a little hesitating.. and yst when I saw it again, I dunno why I didnt hesitate and just got it.. haha.. but anyway it is really comfy... :)

下一站幸福

Finally started on this show. Have been wanting to watch coz I like 安以轩~ :) And since it is a tw drama, and heard so much gd reviews abt it, why should I miss it? Didn't have the time to catch it till recently.

Watched it on my way to work, on my way home.. makes my journey so much more interesting and time seems to pass faster too.

The last time I watched 安以轩's show was long long ago, 斗鱼.Simply LOVE tat show.. cried and cried non stop from the 1st episode to the last episode.. and even after dat whenever I listen to the sound track tears will roll down my cheeks! And now the second 安以轩's show Im watching is making me cry like nobody's biz again! I cried from the first episode till the most recent one I caught, 5th episode. My eyes were even red and teary on the mrt when I watched. I was trying my very best not to cry on the mrt!!

But it's really very sad~~~~~~~ I just can't stop crying.. but at the same time, I love this show too! and 安以轩is pretty pretty~ me like~ though I dun like 吴建豪, but the show still nice.. who noes maybe after this show I will start to like him?

Nice show~ Should watch it if u can!!!

2010-01-25T22:14:00.002+08:00

Girl proposing to guy

Years ago, when I watched a show on TV which helped ppl with their proposal, a girl asked for help to propose to her boyfriend. At that time, I was thinking, please lo.. how can a ger propose to a guy! Guy should take the initiative!!! Ger shouldnt do tat! NO WAY MAN!

But you all should know wat happened to me.. hahaha...

Well, I guess during that time, even though I was in a r/s.. I think.. I can't rem... I felt that I will never never propose to a guy. Maybe I have yet to meet the one. Maybe I have yet to feel that love is so strong tat u can do anything because of it.

Why must a guy propose to a ger? Is there a law tat says guy should propose to ger and ger should not propose to guy? It's just our mindset... and it is us who refused to change our own mindset. And maybe it is becoz u have yet to discover the reason for urself to change ur mindset.

When u met the one in ur life, nuthing else matter to u anymore.

So what if u set a list of criteria for your dream guy.. handsome, cool, muscular, rich, caring, love animals, dun drink dun smoke, owes a car etc etc... tat is ur DREAM guy.. the guy u will onli find and fall in love with in ur DREAM.

So what if u said things like my bf cannot be more than 2 years older than me, my bf must be at least 180m tall, my bf must treat me like a princess and gives me everything i want, my bf must this must tat... many times, in real life, the one u are spending the rest of ur life with, is totally different from all ur criteria.

I once said that my bf cannot be more than 3 years older than me.. so I once had a bf who was same year as me.. and conclusion is tat guys really do mature SLOWER than gers... and the one I have decided to marry is 6 years older than me. I once said that my bf's chinese must be gd and noe cantonese, but well my lubby is a potato. I once said that my bf must.....

When u met THE ONE.. love can be so strong that all ur criteria and must-haf become nuthing.

THE ONE is so special that change ur believe and ur thinking.

THE ONE in my life is so special and my love for him is so strong that makes me feel girl proposing to guy is ok, even though frens do not agree.

I'm really glad that I have found THE ONE.. and I'm very sure that he is THE ONE because he really makes me feel dat a lot of things are no longer important, as long as we can be together for the rest of our lives.

I just want him to feel blessed, happy, touched, loved, lucky, special....

And that's why I asked, 你愿意娶我吗？ :)

2010-01-23T23:59:00.002+08:00

Asking

Lubby didn't ask my parents for my hand before he proposed to me. Coz he didn't even know he should do dat. So, he only did it 1+mth after he proposed, after I said yes.

Lubby was very nervous coz he didn't know what he should say. Being a potato, He could say better in english. But my parents speak cantonese.. and their chinese is better than english. So my lubby would need to speak to them in chinese and ask for my hand. Though I have already said yes to him and my parents can't say no in a way, he was still very worried that my parents will say no.

So last Sat, before we went out, he brought a box of 3 cans of abalone and came to ask for my hand. And he succeeded~ :) He was so nervous that my mum told him 不用紧张，慢慢来。haha. In any case, he was relieved after that.

We will only choose our dates after CNY as my parents said that they dun usually ask abt such things at the end of a year. So yah, will do so after CNY.

2010-01-13T20:12:00.002+08:00

Another Step Closer

Yesterday was our 1st appointment with HDB (after the choosing unit and pay deposit appt in Oct 09). It was a chop chop gali pok session as the lady who served us was very experienced and fast. :)

We signed in total 10+ documents. Mainly is to allow HDB to deduct money from our CPF account. And also to sign the agreement that we are getting the flat and etc.

So now, our CPF acc amt has gone down. But we are one step closer to our future.

Even though it is big money, and seriously our hse is not cheap for punggol... but I really love my hse so much.. even before it is built. It will be so convenient. Less than 5 minutes walk from our block to the MRT, bus interchange and Punggol Town Centre. Less than 3 minutes drive to TPE. Last time I dun really like Sengkang and Punggol coz I felt that they are so ulu.. but in 3 years time, the circle line will be up and with all the shopping facilities so near to our place, there is nuthing much to worry~ :)

Am already thinking of wat kinda deco we would wanna do for our hse. And lubby's parents have already started looking out for things for our hse. They have already bought us a set of super expensive forks and spoons. And then they are looking out for plates and bowls for us. Well, I feel so blessed to have them as my future parents-in-law. They are like helping us to look out for things in advance even though it is still far away. :) Really appreciate all the help. :)

Anyway alothough tat getting the keys, doing reno, paying monthly installment is going to be a big big sum... but I still can't wait for the day to come!

Pre-Wedding Photo Shoot

Had been doing research, reading reviews in forum, checking out the websites etc.. did a list of the bridal studio tat has gd reviews and photos with great feel or feel tat we prefer...

But who noes, we didn't need the list afterall.

We were at vivo city for movies while we walked past the bridal fair at 1st floor. Walked one round and decided to take a look at some fotos from The Aisle Bridal Boutique. The funny thing was, just one or two days ago, lubby mentioned to me abt this place. He read in the Punggol Residences forum that some of the couples are under this bs. And I remembered that it was one of the better ones I listed down from my research... I think. Anyway we looked at the album and the feel of the fotos are quite nice. We were invited to sit down and looked at more fotos.

And of coz next thing they did was intro their package to us. And also their designer. Their gowns are designed by their own designer, and they got 1st in last year's bridal show. The designer also designed some artist's dress for the count down party. And when I looked at their album of the gowns, I really like some of them. Pretty pretty and special too~

What attracted us the most was what they include in the package. We can haf all the soft copy of the raw photos of the 32 poses for the album in a cdrom! And the package includes actual day photography and the unlimited number of photos will be burnt into a cdrom for us too! And the 20'' x 40'' montage of 3 photos is nice! We felt that having the soft copies of the photos is sumthing that we feel is impt and thus we got the package!

Though we have yet to decide on our date, and thus yet to decide on our foto shoot date.. but it will be quite soon.. maybe half a year to 3/4 year time... im already sooooooooo looking forward to our pre-wedding photo shoot!

We can think of 5 locations to take our photos.

冲动与爱情

冲动，对爱情而言，是相当的重要。

男生与女生互相产生好感，但是因为双方或其中一方犹豫不决，或者害怕受伤、害怕承诺，而迟迟不敢踏出第一步。也许就会因为如此而错过了对方，错过了相爱的机会。但是，若其中一方有所冲动，向另一方穷追不舍；又或者双方都有那股冲动，把两人之间的距离拉近，那么冲动就让彼此有了相爱的机会。

不管男生还是女生，都应该要有那股冲动，向自己的另一半说‘我爱你’、‘我想你’等肉麻话语。而不应该是左顾右盼，犹豫是否应该把爱放在嘴边。如果真的爱，就说出来，何必迟疑呢？会有谁不希望听到自己心爱的人对自己说爱呢？这样的冲动也许就会让对方感觉到那份爱。

男女朋友没有约好见面，但是可能就是那一股冲动，而让其中一方出现在另一方的面前，给对方一个惊喜。这样的冲动，也能拉近彼此的心。

好想听听情人的声音，却又怕对方正在忙着，没有空听电话，或是怕打扰对方。这时就是需要这股冲动，拿起电话，按下按钮。也许对方正在想你，也许对方正需要你的鼓励，那么这冲动又拉近了双方的距离。

越来越多情侣选择闪电结婚，也许也是因为那股冲动。一般情况下，当一对情侣拍拖好几年，不是结婚就是以分手收场。有时当我们已经习惯了对方的存在，习惯得到对方的迁就与疼爱，那股冲动也就慢慢消失。没有了冲动，爱情的花火也就慢慢地减少，渐渐地，彼此就成为了最熟悉的陌生人。可能就是因为如此，很多情侣选择在热恋中凭着那股冲动，踏上红地毯。

冲动，并不一定是负面的。冲动，也可以是正面的。

冲动，在我的爱情字典里，有着重要的地位。

From Cage To Zoo

Some ppl say that marriage will take away ur freedom.. instead u haf more responsibility. Well, yes I agree that we will need to be more responsible, for ourselves and each other.. but to me, marriage is another kinda freedom.

To me, I'm just migrating from a cage in a hse, to the open area in a zoo.. though not the sky. The cage in a hse is very restricted. U do wat ur owner want u to do. U need to be in ur cage whenever ur owner wanna see u. U need to let ur owner play with u when ur owner wants to. U dun really haf a say in many things. But when u are in the open area in the zoo, u can fly in a less restricted area, fly as long as u like, and when u are tired, u can rest anywhere in the zoo. U do not need to play with ur owner, u haf more say in things u wanna do. As long as u stay within the zoo compound.

I dun need so much freedom tat I can fly anywhere in the sky. A zoo is good enuff for me. That's what I'm looking forward to now. I really wish I can migrate fr the cage to the zoo soon. So that I can see my beloved in the zoo, spend time with him and haf more freedom.

I'm really so looking forward to the day.

Cycling

It has been months since we last cycled together..

Todae we went for cycling at ECP.

The sun was bright, but not very hot as the wind was quite strong.

We cycled for abt 2+hrs.. and it was better than i tot..

I tot that I will get tired very fast as I have not exercised for quite a long time.. but.. I managed to keep up lubby's speed!!! My bicycle is much much smaller than my dear's and the ratio of him paddling and me paddling is abt 1:3 becoz of the small wheels.. and I managed to maintain quite a gd speed todae! :D

Dear got me a pair of cycling shorts.. we have been looking ard and couldnt really find a not so ex one.. all the ones we saw are like over $100 and I dun think it is worth the money as I do not cycle tat often.. And I dun really invest $ into cycling.. The one we saw todae is $54 and is quite ok and dear got it for me... thanks lubby!! I felt more comfy cycling in tat padded shorts.. but... it felt weird when I was walking... coz the padding is thick!!!

We got so red and darker after the cycling session.. and slowly I start to feel tat my muscles are aching! Actually I like the feeling of aching muscles after exercise.. hehe.. feels good!

Met with frens for dinner.. steamboat buffet.. and yah there goes my 2hrs exercise.. sianz... and then we went to our fren's new hse at Duxton! Though it is not very big but it is cosy... and make us start to think abt our hse! How I wish that we can get our hse fast!!! But well.. it will onli be ready in a few years' time.. haiz.. still a long way to go........

My new cycling shorts

One Of Our Favourite Place

The place where we first met.

The place where we first held hands.

The place where we first hug.

The place where we first kissed.

The place where we go after dinner, before sending me home.

The place where we go for picnic.

The place where we had our mini bbq.

The place where we go cycling.

Love it when it is peaceful, with sea breeze blowing towards us.

So relaxing~

Not Easy

It is not easy to get integrated into a new group of people.

Especially when that group of people is so closed with many years of relationship.

Of coz I cant blame anyone but sumtimes I just feel sad abt it.

It really feels nice when people treat u as part of them. Ask u to join them for lunch everyday. Ask u to go out shop every once in a while. Involve u in their activities and outings.

Basically u feel u haf lots of frens. U dun feel lonely.

That was how I felt before I left my previous work place.

In my new workplace, I’m seated far away from my team, therefore lowering the chances of interaction with them.

I do not really know what is happening over that side. I do not wanna appear to be so free and walk around and kpo around. Thus the only interaction time is lunch.

Sumtimes I feel extra, especially when I am not able to participate in their conversation or activities. Especially when I dun understand what they were talking abt, the things tat happened in the past. The connection of past happenings to current issues.

It is not easy.

I guess all these need time.

I hope not too long.

The Not So Little Black Dot

I removed the not so little black dot abt 1.5 mths ago. But the whole healing process was not as smooth as it should be.

1. The white dissolvable thread was BROKEN and the wound opened up. Went back to the doc the day after the surgery and restitch a blue ugly thread outside the skin.

2. Abt a week later, the wound looked like infected with yellow thingy. Doc not in SG and thus went to see the associated doc instead. The associate doc felt that it was healing well and the yellowish thing is not infection. It's just accumulation of the cream I applied. He took out the stitch.

3. Went back to Doc for review after he was back in SG and he removed the white stitch for me.

4. The holes of the stitch head looked infected. Went back to Doc to check and true enuff, infection. Injection was done.

5. 1 month after the surgery, went back for review. No infection already but the wound is still very red. Doc helped to use laser on the wound, supposed to lighten the colour.

6. 2 wks later, today, the wound is still as red. Morever, there seems to be a lump. It is as big as the original not so little black dot, and it is hard. Worried abt it and went back for chk up.

The moment I stepped into the clinic, doc was with the nurses at the counter. He looked at my wound and said, wah lao y like tat! haha I think he is pretty frustrated with all the nonsense tat happened on the wound area. He then said u very ke lian very xin ku hor. I said no la I jsut feel very ma fan. Then all of the sudden, he pat my head and say ke lian! I was stunned! er... I noe tat the whole clinic felt that I'm a young little ger and tot tat I'm still schooling and stuff, but hello I'm not tat young leh.. or did the doc feel like I'm his daughter at tat moment? haha.

Anyway he helped to laser again and injected some med. This will help to flatten the lump and lighten the colour. He told me tat this is the first time tat such surgery has such result, usually the healing is quite fast and good. Well, guess I broke his record! He said tat for normal cases if there is any redness after the surgery, he would charge the patient for the laser shots. But he said tat coz I am very nice (maybe is coz i nv complain in spite of all these happenings) he helped me with all these for free, without extra charge. And I will haf to go back 2 wks later for the 2nd laser and injection session. Doc said that he felt bad abt this whole thing. But actually I do not think it is his fault. As many ppl heal much faster than me. And b4 the surgery I already signed a form saying tat there will be chances of having scar after the surgery. But doc actually did his best and helped all he can without charging me 1 more cent.

Well, I think I am the onli ma fan patient he has. haha. But I guess in a way, I didnt lugi at all coz I made every cent I spent worth it with so many follow up action.. well I rather not haf all these.. haha

Princess and The Frog

Watched this cartoon movie this afternoon and found it quite a funny and nice show. There are so many parts tat makes me and my colleague laughed. Be it lame or stupid or jsut funny, we had quite a relaxed and happy 98minutes.

It is a typical happily ever after fairytale. Yet it actually brought across some message to the audiences.

In life, we do not have to fulfil all our wants. What is impt is our need. In the show, princess wants to haf a restaurant of her own as that was her dad (who had passed away) and her dream. However, she does not need tat. What she needs is love.

Same goes to me. I want to haf a wedding tat I like. I want to take pre wedding photo shoots with beautiful backgrd. I want to haf surprises for all my guests at my wedding. I want to haf a memorable wedding. But do I need all these? Maybe not.. What I need is love. What I need is to be with my other half. What I need is we are happy together and haf a happy future.

And so I will try to keep tat in mind!

Also, a simple sentence might bring across the message A with you needing to do way A. But often we do not see that there is actually another way B, which can also result in the same message A. So if you tried way A and it fails, dun give up as there is still plan B!

In the movie, the frog can only turn back into the prince if he kiss the princess. However, due to some reasons, he failed to do so. But he din think of another princess. He didnt think of another way. When he married the other female frog, and kissed, both of them turned back into human! Tat is because after the lady frog is married to the male frog who is supposed to be a prince, the lady frog will be a princess and so when the male frog kissed his wife, he is also kissing a princess and thus ta da~

So sumtimes if we are not able to achieve what we tot we should, do not give up. Think of the same thing from another point of view and u may see another answer!

The Long Awaited Surprise

'Dear, you want ur bday present now?' Lubby asked me when we were in his room yesterday.

'No, I wan it tml on my bday'

'U sure? u dun wan it now?'

'yah tml..'

And then he was looking disappointed and so I told him, 'up to u, if u wan give me now then now lo'

And after some 'persuation' i finally say ok and wan my bday present and so he took out a present.

I guessed it is the cam tat i wanna get.. and he said, 'cam box so small meh?'

So i tot, sumthing else? hmmmm

And after i opened and see, it is the cam! haha.. i sort of guessed tat because the day before I told him dat maybe i dun wan the black one coz is so not me, and he was like 'huh!' hahaha dat i noe sumthing is fishy...

anyway i took out the cam and start to test taking photo and den del off some of the ugly photos and suddenly, i haf a feeling tat maybe he has taken some photo yst to test test so i scroll to see and.... i saw a photo of my bling bling and the words 'will you marry me?' and den i saw the fine print 'pls say yes'.. hahahaha.. so cute!

Lubby then asked, so wats ur ans.. and den i say where is the real bling bling!

He took out a box of artificial roses with a boy bear and a ger bear and the bears were holding the bling bling. He kneel down and asked the question again.

I couldnt find any reason to reject him and so of coz i said yes. :)

I have nv tot of such an idea.. and it seems like it was not the original idea too..but after i mentioned tat i wanna get the cam, it gave him an idea. Coz he knew tat with my personality i will sure try to take photo with the cam. And sumhow i seem to feel tat there is more photos inside and so i scrolled to see.

Looks like we really can feel wat the other party is doing and thinking most of the time!

And now, I am yours, and you are mine! :D

I am totally in love with my bling bling!!! So pretty~~!~

Photos to be seen here.

The Proposal

Just like how it was like in the movie The Proposal, the gf proposed to the bf!

Months back when Lubby told me abt the Tissot watch he likes, I had this plan already.

Who says that ONLY guy can propose to ger? I wan us to be a special couple, I wan to be a special gf and I wan him to be a special bf.

If a guy can propose to his gf, y cant a ger propose to her bf?

So I went ard asking ppl where to get Tissot watch at a cheaper price. Seems like no1 really haf any definite answer. I went ard asking few shops on the price and even when I was in China, I went to check out all the outlets too!

However, the watch my lubby likes is not tat common. Many outlet does not carry that model and thus I was still trying to find until last Sunday.

I was at TM and checked and found the watch at a very resonable price. And without hesitating much, I bought it.

But I was really worried that my lubby will noe because I kept asking him abt the watch, the model, the price etc coz I was really worried tat I might get the wrong model! And the watch is not tat cheap!!!

My initial plan is to wait for him to propose to me, then I will propose to him with the watch. But after I bought the watch, I couldn't wait to pass it to him since he likes the watch so much! And thus I decided to bring forward my plan and propose to him before he does so.

Sun night I started to do a powerpt slide of all our photos and a poem written by myself. And then plan when and where to show him the powerpt and propose.

And as I can't wait to give him the watch, I gotta find a date tat is near and meaningful. And since todae is thanks giving day, I would use the poem to thank him for everything he has done for me and propose to him.

After dinner at Ikea, I started to feel very nervous. I felt like I'm going for some interview or exam. And then as he gotta go home to collect sumthing he bought online, I had no choice but asked if he could go up my hse to chk my computer coz sumthing is not right. And he asked wat is wrong with the comp. And I said I dunno how to describe I gotta show him. He then said, sumthing is fishy! And then I was so worried and 'scolded' him which made him more sure tat sumthing is realy fishy.

When we reached home, I gave excuse that I need to change and I took a long time coz I gotta open the powerpt slide, get ready the watch and etc.

And the moment he click on the screen and the powerpt slides started, both of us couldn't stop crying. haha.

And then when the powerpt slide showed 'will you marry me' I took out the watch and put in frt of him.

And of coz he said yes. hehe.

I'm happy that he is surprised and touched and happy because I wan him to be pampered just like how he pamper me. No1 should be deprieved from tat! And as long as I can, I will gif him surprises and pamper him and of coz shower him with all my love and care.

I Love You My dear.

Hope that todae will be one of the best and most memorable moment of your life! :)

Pls click here for pictures!

What Matters Most In Life

Is HAPPINESS.

Are you happy now? If yes, congrats. If no, why? Can u find a solution to it? Can u try to change the situation and make urself happier?

From FB, MSN, chit chat sessions, I can see that my ex colleagues from NE are not happy. Well, we all noe tat we have not been happy since many mths back. But the situation has been getting worse for the past few mths, and ever since I left, it seems like it is getting even worse.

We all noe the reason. But we can't change the start of the problem. Because it has been fixed and we are not BIG enuff to change anything anyway.

So why did I leave my previous workplace? Well, wat I said in my interview is true. I wan a change in working environment. I love children and so I wanna do sumthing for them. I wanna contribute to another group of ppl in the society.

But on top of all these, it is because I can't stand the previous place.

I used to LOVE my previous job. And I really mean LOVE. I dun need to drag myself to work. I am happy at work. Even though I gotta work over the wkends, I was still happy and didn't really complain. Until the change.

Then I felt that I dragged myself to work everyday. I felt tat I am being controlled by those ppl up there. I felt tat I'm jsut a chess used by them. With the changes, I felt that I have to be a superwoman to be able to carry out those duties. And I dun feel any sense of belonging anymore.

When u can't feel the sense of belonging to a place, how can u actually work hard and make urself believe that u are happy in tat place? Since they dun appreciate wat we did, or I did, how do i bring myself to work for them?

Maybe we are just unlucky to be a stepping stone, and not being able to voice out our unhappiness etc.

And thus, since I can't change the problem or the situation, I move on and bring myself out of the problem.

I'm in my new job for the 4th week. Heard from my colleagues that they are 'overloaded' with work and everyone seem to work til quite late. But well, which job is so relax nowadays? Even cleaner aunties also gotta do so much more work than last time. But at least I am happy here. At least the ppl here are frenly. At least I feel a sense of belonging here. At least I have my own work station.

Though there is a pay cut, though I wun be able to get my full 13th mth bonus, though my march bonus will not be full amt too, but, can money buy me happiness.

Yes, maybe when I haf the bonus, I can get myself another LV bag like last year. Maybe I can save more for my hse and wedding. But will I be happy everyday in tat kinda working environment?

We work for at least 8 hrs daily. If we work at a place which we dun like, we will be upset for 1/3 of a day everyday! Is tat worth all the bonuses and etc? Well if you can tahan all the unhappiness and unfairness in order to get the $, then u can continue. But I cant. And thus Im out to sumwhere else.

Happiness is in our hands. We need to look for it. We need to fight for it. We need to make it happen.

So if u are unhappy now, think abt it, why is it so? is there anything u can do? And most importantly, do u want to be happy?

3rd Birthday Present

As I told Lok Hang the other time, I would want to get a black bag as my bday present this year.

Went searching for one, but couldn't find any nice and 'see-up-eye' one..

Was at Charles and Keith just now and saw this bag which I like! Tried on the black one but looked very 'flashy' coz of the material and reflective nature. And the purple looks nice! So I decided to get the purple one as it is quite dark and should be quite easy to match clothes, I hope.

So there I got my 3rd bday present of the year!

Thanks Lok Hang and Huixian! :)

Thanks Lubby!

I Can't Stop Smiling

After work, lubby came to fetch me from office and den came home to pick my parents and proceed to the airport coz my grandpa came sg today.

Lubby and I had popeye for dinner as he has been wanting to try and didn't get a chance to do so. And as usual, he ordered SOOOOO MUCHHHHH food tat we couldn't finish. Well, decided that next time I would be the one ordering to avoid wastage of food!

After dinner went to the toilet to wash my hands. When I came out from the toilet, a man with a little girl approached me. 'Excuse me miss, can you pls help to bring my daughter to the toilet?' I was quite shocked and didn't respond in time. He then continued to say 'Coz she is a ger so I cant bring her in.' (And then I remembered how my dad brought me to the GENTS when I was a little ger and urinated at the urinal.. omg...) And so I said ok no prob. Then he told his daughter that this jie jie will bring her into the toilet and he will wait outside for her. And then she whispered sumthing to him and he told me 'can u pls pass her some tissue paper after she has finished?' I was like oh no prob! And then we went in and she was holding her soft toy! So I asked the man, 'er... do u wanna hold her toy first?' hahaha.. I worry that her toy will drop into the toilet bowl la!

And then I brought her in. Wanted to hold her hands but she was so shy tat she refused to let me hold. Throughout the walk to the toilet, her body was super straight and she didnt talk, didnt look at me. And when we were in the cubicle, she stood there and looked at the toilet bowl while I locked the door. haha. Then I helped her to clean the seat. She was just a 2+ or 3 year old small ger and I was worried that she cant 'climb' onto the seat.. but she did it so ok la.. haha..

Then brought her to wash her hands.. wah heng she very light.. I still rem how heavy Ryan was when I carried him to wash his hands.. I was like Ryan are u done... and trying to tahan.. haha..

And then there we went out of the toilet, she was still walking or rather marching.. haha.. and the moment she saw her daddy out there, she hopped over! OMG she is sooooooo cute!!! Her daddy asked her if she thank me but she kept quiet.. so I told him is ok no problem. She is so shy~ but SOOOOOOOOO cute la~!!

And I keep thinking of her...though is just a very simple act, but I felt happy being able to help tat daddy and tat ger ger. And I wished that I have a daughter NOW!!! For the dunno how many times in this wk! :P

A Contented Sunday

In the morning, painted my finger nails with gold base and gold glitter at the tip. :) Pretty~ Bling bling! Not bad right? I think I can do quite a gd job, so dun need to go manicure~ :P

Went to Tampines to collect my reserved book from the library -- The Time Traveller's Wife. A book which I have reserved for so long ago! And I didn't haf the time or chance to collect it til todae. Then went shopping at Tampines. Bought two dresses from one of my fav shop at CS, Mila. Fell in love with the blue dress the moment I saw it. It's super cute! Got it since it looks quite nice on me. :) Bought another grey dress as there is 20% discount now for members.

Got myself a piglet water bottle so that I can bring a small bottle of water out for visits. At first couldn't find any piglet one, but lots of pooh ones. Then I went off to find at other shops and before going off I somehow due to no reasons decided to go back to look at the bottles again and ta da! I found my piglet!!!

My aunt just went to Switzerland (oman.. I wanna go too!) for work purpose and bought back 3 bars of chocolate. One bar is super long... and she bought more for us because I love chocolate! wahahhaa.. anyway opened a small bar and OHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYYYYY GODDDDDDDDDDDDD~ It's heavenly! I felt as if I flew into the sky right after I ate the chocolate! Yum~~~~

I LOVE Children

That's my conclusion after my visit to centres today.

Was at a centre with my colleague for investigation purpose. We had to tok to the children in a room.

And the kids are just sooooo cute! They love to tok and tok and tok... and they are so excited to express themselves~! And they are such a happy bunch tat they always luff and smile after they talked abt sumthing.

Then after chatting with them for a while, one of the little ger suddenly sat on my lap. haha~ she is so cute.. she didn't ask me or wat but just sat on my lap.

Well of coz I didnt reject her and just continued to carry her lo.. :)

Then she went off to wash her hands and another ger came over and sat on my lap!

When the first girl came back she asked her fren to go off but her fren refused to. And so the first girl went to play with my bag. She carried my bag and said tat her bag is almost the same kind and even wanted to open my bag! haha.

Then we haf to bid gdbye and when we went downstairs to the 1st storey, the 2nd girl asked me to hold her hand and walked down the stairs.

I'm so happy and touched with all these little actions that the girls did.

They are just sooooo cute and sweet la!

Although I may not be able to face and play with the children everyday, but I'm happy that my job invovles children and I am able to talk to them, visit them and see them once in a while! :) Contented already~

Bday Present

Hehe, I received my 2nd bday present of the year~

First bday present is my omnia II from lubby.

Second bday present is a bag from Lubby's parents. His mum got the bag for herself and felt that it is nice and thus got one for me as my bday is coming. :)

It will be ideal to be used as a lunch bag. BUT apparently I do not need any lunch bag as we can only go da bao from the canteen and eat as we only haf 1 hr lunch time and it is not enuff to get down the mountain and go sumwhere else to eat.

But I can still use it when I do not need to bring too many things. :)

Hm... what else do I want for my bday?

1. Leather wallet
2. Watch (formal wear... those with metal strap)
3. Bling Bling earring.. (Real bling bling!!!!)
4. Black handbag tat is not too big and not too small.. I do not haf a black one!
5. $$$$$ coz im saving hard now...

Tat's all I can think of at this moment though..

2009-11-07T22:48:00.002+08:00

No Infection?

Tat is wat the other clinic told me today.

Went to the associate clinic for chking of wound as my doc is out of town. The doc looked at my wound and said it looks ok dun worry. And he said tat we will need to take out the stitch and see how after dat.

So went to take out the stitch and the nurse said tat it is ok dun look like infection. The yellowish thing are just the accumulated cream tat I keep applying layer after layer, not allowing it to have time to dry. And they dun see the need to take antibiotic. They even asked me to wash my wound with soap and water. They said that if there is infection, the lip will be swollen. And the redness on my wound area should disappear after 1-2 days. The doc take a look at my wound after washing and said it is ok and looks fine.

The two clinics said different things. Well of coz I will prefer to trust my own clinic but as it is the nurses who chked my wound, I have some doubt too la... But it seems like they take photo of my wound and send it to my doc who is overseas.

So is there infection or is there not? Yellowish thingy there is pus or accumulated cream?

Well to play safe, I just continue to take my antibiotic.

And I was looking at my wound and realised that under the yellowish thingy are gaps and holes. But the associate clinic told me tat there seems to be no holes...

OMG I NEED MY DOC! But he will onli be back on Thursday!!!! :( Even if I have any problem and approched my clinic now, only the nurses can take a look... and if they ask me go to the associate doc, he will say no prob and it is healing.

I really really hope it is no prob and just healing..

OMG.. I'm damn worried again...

2009-11-06T22:55:00.002+08:00

Infection

That's the current situation of my wound.

I didnt know those were pus.. because I hardly cut myself or injuired myself and see pus or infection.

I tot the itchiness is the healing of wound.

How come take one course of antibiotic and apply the anti-bacterial cream liao still can get infection?

U ask me I ask who.

How come normal ppl get a normal deep cut and den without applying any cream or take any med, the wound can still heal faster than me?

Because urs is just a cut.. mine is a surgery!

IF you all can ask so much, why didn't u all help me in the first place? Why tat when I show u all my wound, you all didn't say anything abt it TILL the nurse said it was infection just now?

So the wound got infected because I did the surgery on the 1st appt with the doc? When everyone else also just went for first appt, doc explained the situation and did it straight away? So wat if I didn't do it on the first appt? I go home wait 3 days and den go back to doc and say ok I will do it? Will that help?

Or perhaps it was my fault tat the doc was not free on Fri which was a BETTER date for surgery as on tong sheng. And thus did it on Thursday.

I'm already so worried abt the infection and being the 5% who get scars from this, and yet u all just ask me this and ask me tat, say me this and say me tat... I dun need all these! I need some words of encouragement and consolation...

Training for my legs

I'm still trying to get used to the journey to office and back home everyday.

Well, it's not as bad as I thought. Maybe I'm starting to get used to it already.

Basically, in the morning, the frequency of MRT seems to be quite fast and thus I'm able to reach Novena station fast! And then when I walk to the bus stop, I usually do not haf to wait too long for the bus to arrive. (let's hope it will stay this way!)

And I can reach office in 1 hr's time!

Similarly, during knock off time, the frequency of bus and MRT are fast and thus I can reach home fast too.

But one thing I still trying to tahan is tat usually I do not haf a chance to sit down... And tat makes my legs tired esp when I'm wearing heels!!!!

Just like now, my tighs are aching!!!!

2009-11-02T22:04:00.002+08:00

First Day At The New Workplace

Had the very long journey there and then had induction in the morning.

Afternoon got to my dept and settled some IT and admin stuff.

Got to noe my colleagues but I cant rem their names liao.. haha... too many la~

My dept is full of young ladies.. with onli 5 men...

And just gotta noe that they just re-org and thus my dept is so called 'new'.. how come I always go to new dept/team? When I joined my previous company, my team was also new~! haha~

Anyway my colleagues seem to be quite frenly and fun... but then I have yet to interact with them.. summore my work station is so far away from theirs (coz their side no space liao...)

Tml will be following my colleague to one of the child care centre to see see look look~ :)

I still drag the travelling journey.. 1.5 hr to there... 1.5 hr back home.. by the time I reached home is already 8pm, bathed and had dinner 9pm, washed dishes and did some of my packing and washed up, 10pm... no life... how to exercise when I haf to wake up at 6am every morning and reached home only at 8pm? :(

Anyway I really hope that I will like this job and so that will be the motivation for me to travel so far~ (though I wished that I can stay at lubby place coz got direct bus!!! And he can even send me to work everyday! so near his hse!!! but my parents will kill me....haha)

2009-11-01T21:40:00.002+08:00

New place, New People

After resting and nuaing for almost a mth, it's time to start work again.

This time round, it's a new place, with a new job scope, with new people tat I will have to work with.

Frankly speaking, I'm quite worried.

I'm worried of everything to do with the new job. Whether it is the new job scope, or the new environement, the new policies, the new rules (seen or unseen) and the new people, etc.

There will be a half day induction programme in the morning tml. I really hope tat thru the induction prog, I will be able to noe more people fr the new place, so tat I wun feel so left out and lonely and worried.

I hope tat the half day induction will at least bring me closer to my new colleagues and there will be nice colleagues who will actually ask me go lunch with them. I still rem my first day in my previous workplace. I met my boss, spoke to him till lunch time and then he told me tat he needed to haf lunch with his fren (who is another boss of another dept) and left me all alone. My team mate or who-so-ever all ignored me and I was all alone on my first day of lunch.

If this happens tml, I dunno wat to do because my new workplace is up on a 'mountain' and I really dunno where to go for lunch. *Cross fingers*

I'm also worried abt my new job scope. It's sumthing which I have not done before, and I have no idea what I will need to learn.

I'm also nervous abt the new environment. Every workplace or dept will sure haf its own seen, unseen, spoken and unspoken policies and rules. I just hope that I can get used to them quickly.

Though this is not my first job, but yet this is the first time I'm changing a job. Let's hope everything will be ok. :)

Blue Blue Monster

Woke up this morning and washed up my wound. And realised that there was a hole at one end of the stitch.. the hole is not v deep, just a shallow one.. but it makes me worry.. did the stitch break causing the hole?

Called up the clinic and the nurse asked me to go down and let doc check again since it's very hard to conclude anything on the line.

Went down in the afternoon and apparently the stitch broke and the wound opened up! OMG! I was like huh! wat happen? wat did I do? Nurse said that because it's near to the mouth and thus movements might pull the stitch and broke it.

Doc said that we could jsut leave it like tat, but then, better stitch again la.

OMG.. I had to go thru the pain of the injection again!

First the doc pulled out the stitch from my wound JUST LIKE TAT. I felt as if my skin is coming out!

Then he told me tat yst he wanted to stitch the blue stitch for me which is stronger than the dissolvable one he used but coz they felt that the surgery was beautifully done and thus didn't do so. However it seems like my wound is not coorperative enough ba.. haha. Anyway he started by injecting again and again my tear rolled down automatically though I've tried very hard to control. It seemed like the pain is so sharp tat I can't seem to be able to do anything. And funny enuff, only my right eye dropped a tear! then comes the stitching part.. think the med have yet to take effect and thus I could feel a bit pain during the stitch.. and tada, I have a blue stitch on my wound now!

When it was done, the doc left before they took away the thing tat put on my eyes and I didnt get to say thank you to him AGAIN! But heng ar! He came back to get sumthing and I quickly said thank you doctor before he left again. And his reply was 'welcome! Thank you for coming!'haha

I've been trying super hard not to talk too much and not to luff.. but knowing tat I'm not supposed to luff, sumhow I just wanna luff more at even very stupid and lame things. Luffing at myself for not being able to do things tat are jsut so simple, like sucking fr a straw! But I could feel a bit pain when I luff or talk too fast and thus I have to control control!!!

And thank you my lubby for getting me birdnest and he heard that it was gd for skin! :)

Goodbye My Fren

I bid goodbye to a fren who has been with me for 20+ years.

When I was in Beijing, we were at this place to listen to some feng shui thingy. After listening, the feng shui master tok to me and my fren. And he asked me to remove my mole because it is big and it is not doing me any good. So I told him tat when I was a little girl, my mum brought me to those facial places to remove it (just using some cream) but I fell sick for a long time. And thus the mole just stayed there for many years. The feng shui master replied tat happened when I was young, now I grow up liao is a different case.

Well he does not provide any mole removeral services, so he can't be saying tat just to earn my money rite.. and it doesnt do him any gd to bluff me anyway.. thus I concluded that what he said is true. Moreover he is a very famous feng shui master (but I forgot his name liao..). He was invited to come to SG to SAVE Suntec after it was built and opened but yet no biz.. and thus he suggested to haf the fountain of wealth and now Suntec is totally different fr the start~!

I talked to my mum abt it and she is ok with it. She told me tat last year when we were in TW, we were at this feng shui related place too and the guy calculated that I will haf 血光之灾 this year and must be careful. So my mum felt that doing the mole removeral surgery is another way of letting it happen which is gd too la.

Thus I asked my frens Jo and Cyn who had done mole removeral recently for recommendation. Called the aesthetic clinic this morning and made appt. And they asked me to go down today as the next 2 days are full already. And since I'm someone who is impatient and once I set my mind on doing sumthing, I cant wait to do it! And there I was, at the clinic at International Building with my mum in the afternoon.

Dr Ng is a gentle man whose complexion is damn gd and fair la.. well of coz he must look gd if not no1 will believe and trust him right? He said tat my mole is quite big and explained that the risks invovled. There might be scarring.. but most of the cases would not haf.. and since my mole is on the area between my upper lip and nose, and it is big (0.6cm in diameter) so after stitching the lower skin might be pulled up a bit. Other than tat, there shouldnt be any problem.

Since I have set my mind in getting it done, I went ahead with the 20+ minute surgery at the clinic. It was really scary. I lied on the op bed and then they put sumthing on my eyes so tat I cant open them. Then he cleaned my face and inject! OMG! The injection is DAMN painful!!! my tears AUTO rolled down lor.. :'( But after that I dun feel anything at all. Then I feel things poking me but I dunno wat it is. Then next thing I know is I smelt some Chao Ta smell while Dr Ng use sumthing to poke my mole. And then I felt needle and thread and next thing I know is he is stitching already. Everytime he stitch and pull the needle and thread, I could feel my skin being pulled up! haha.

The nurses told the doc tat it is a beautiful job~ :D happy happy~

When it was done, I was still blur blur and din even noe. Dr Ng went off and I wasnt in time to thank him! Woke up and saw bloody cutton bud next to the op bed. SCARY! And then next I saw my old fren lying on a cotton pad. I requested to bring it home as it has been part of me for 20+ years! I saw her grow up, from a small little dot to a big fat one with diameter of 0.6cm which makes Dr Ng kept saying 'your mole is quite big' before and during surgery. haha.

I cant talk too much or luff or smile coz any movement will cause the wound to move and thus bleed. I cant even eat things that are too hard. And for the time being I will need to say no to my fav seafood! and anything tat is black colour.. But I dun mind small sacrifice for a pretty face and lucky future! :P

Just now my mum told me tat my dad and her will pay for the surgery as they are the one who gif birth to a girl with a mole. So funny. Thank you mummy and daddy! :)

Below are some photos of how my wound look like and how my old fren looks nice. Well sad to say but I seriously feel tat my old fren looks disgusting! :x Pls be prepared for some upsetting photos below. You may wish to skip the pictures. :)

Children Melt My Heart

The things tat children ard did really melts my heart.

Just for example, everytime Ryan will call me and asks me to play with him, anytime, anywhere.

When I was in China last wk, he asked Lubby's mum if she could help to call Auntie Vivian. Auntie explained to him tat I was not in SG but Beijing and he asked where Beijing is. And Auntie explained tat it is far far away.haha.

Another day he called to talk to his grandpa and requested to go to his hse. And then he asked for Uncle Kenny. After talking a little while with Uncle Kenny, he asked, 'Can I speak to Auntie Vivian?' haha~ His intention of speaking to Lubby is to tok to me! wahaha!

Everytime when we bid goodbye, he will always hug and kiss me. His hug is always soooooooo hard and warm. :) Nv fail to melt my heart everytime. :)

And even Little Celest. She let me carry her, let me play with her and after some time, she will automatically come and find me!~ I still remember, just now she was in recreation room in our office and I went out. When I went back into the room and she saw me, she came towards me and find me! Tat really melted my heart! When I was playing foosball, she always came to look for me~ and she will always ask me to carry her when she wanna see some toys etc.. Maybe coz she noes tat I dote on her and I will always carry her. Maybe I have the ' I will buy/do anything for you' face when Im with her. Still can rem the other time when she wanna go walk walk, she actually passed me my bag before bringing me to go and walk and look for her princess! haha..

How not to love children? :P

Ugly Doll -- OX

We saw the ugly dolls at one of the shops at Raffles City abt 1+ years ago.. We found it super cute and wanted to get it but when we saw the price, we walked off. A shop little one which is the size of a key chain costs more than $20 and a huggable one costs abt $80 or so..

Some time back, we came across these ugly dolls again at Action City. We have been loving the one with a 'X' eye all along but we couldnt find a small size one.

Todae Lubby took half day off to spend time with me before I fly off to China tmr night. And we went to search for our ugly doll.

Finally we found it at Vivo Action City. The bigger size one has soooooo many colours.. blue, green, orange, yellow, pink etc.. but the smaller size one has only one colour left! I was quite sad coz I wanted a pink one but they only haf the bigger size! And I dun want a bigger size coz it's too big to be carried ard in my bag!

Thus we got the blue one and I will bring it to China tmr~!~~

When I see OX I will think of Lubby! thanks Lubby for the gift~ :)

*My mum and my brothers say tat OX is very dirty and my brother actually asked if he is 2nd hand! :( This is the original colour of OX.. all the smaller size ones are of 'dirty' colour la... :( Whether he is dirty colour anot.. i still heart him lots~

2009-10-11T21:04:00.006+08:00

Fun Day

Went to meet Lubby and family at Taka this morning. They wanted to go there as Taka is having storewide sales. Being super frequent shoppers of Taka, and though they have already been there for many times for the past few days coz of the sales, they still wanted to go todae.

As the donut stall at basement was having some sale and we saw some really cute donuts.. we bought a pinky bear for little Ryan~

He was wearing the cute 'I'm tired' tee from us! Too bad I forgot to take photo with him again!!!! :( And he was so cheeky that he kept taking different clothes and said that 'this looks better' etc. haha.

And while we were still shopping at the Nautica, he already told me tat 'later we walk straight to there' and point to the toys section. haha. Anyway saw a bag that is pretty and wanted to get as they haf 10% off, 15% additional off for taka card! And Uncle and Auntie were so nice to actually buy the bag for me! I got the smaller size one while Auntie and Noreen Jie each got the bigger size one. :)

Then once we left Nautica, Ryan pulled, yes really pulled, me to the toy section. He was keeping himself busy with the psp, playstation etc. After some time, we left for another section and I got to entertain him by playing with him (well I enjoyed that la..).. so we were 'running' ard the whole departmental stall.. haha.

After tat, we went to Tampopo for lunch. First time there though I have already heard so much abt their ramen. Tried the Ramen with black pig, some tempura thingy set. The ramen is so QQ~~~~ And the black pig is so yummy!!!! The tempura for prawn is quite big and the asparagus is sooooooooooooo SWEET!

Poor little Ryan was not feeling well by then coz of his sensitive nose which trigger his cough.. hope he is feeling better now. Anyway as he requested to sit in Lubby's car rather than Uncle and Auntie's car, we drove him and Noreen Jie to their new hse as they gotta sign some documents. The cheeky boy chose to sat in front and so we were 'forced' to sit at the back.

Had so much fun with my fav boy though he is sooo cheeky! haha.

New Accessories

Had been wanting to get a casing for my omnia II but the original leather casing was out of stock when we checked the other time.. and anyway it should be quite expensive also la..

Lubby searched and found a not bad looking casing online and so he bought for me.

Only to receive it and found it to be a little different from what we saw on the online picture.

But it is still pretty coz is pink! Metallic pink!

Then we were at Iluma and he saw a white casing and found it quite nice and thus got it for me too. And so now I haf 2 casing! And I can change it as and when I want to and maybe to match my clothes or bag etc.

And at the same stall, I saw the stickers for ezlink card and so decided to get. Was deciding what to get as there are sooooooo many to choose from and lubby pointed out the Little Miss Piggy which I find it cute also.. so I got tat for myself. And I wanted to get one for him too, though I think he use his ezlink card..er.. maybe.. once a year or not at all.. and yt said that the Mr Wateva suits him.. haha so I got tat for him! Haf yet to stick.. will ask Lubby to help stick~

第一次拔罐

头痛了好几天，今天一早去看中医。

中医师说我身体里有很多寒气，肩膀很硬，便说得拔罐！

我的第一个反应是。会痛吗？

因为看过爸爸的身体全是一个个圆圈，还变得黑青！所以心里有些怕怕~！

但是，还好啦，不会很痛。之后医师帮我按摸，推推。

这三个圈圈会跟着我至少一个星期吧~

我的价值

要走了，上头并没有和我‘聊天’，没有想要‘挽留’我的意思。

虽然，并不是说他们说任何东西，我就不会走。

但是，不是应该了解一下员工的心情吗？

听朋友说，他们要离开公司，老板都会和他们聊聊，找出问题的存在。

但是，我的呢？

我想，就这么看来，就知道我的价值有多‘高’了。

对这公司而言，有没有我的存在，都没有任何影响。

需要我做他们要的东西时，就把我说的天那么高，神那么厉害。当我要离开时，就完全不把我放在眼里。

在这里做了两年多，换来的就只有这样的待遇。

心，淡了。

这一再证明了我为什么觉得热忱已经消失了，为什么对这里完全没有归属感。

反正，对他们而言，没有人是无可取代的。

Our Home

Yes, we haf gotten our preferred unit for our future home at Punggol Residences!

Everyone in frt of our que number sumhow just prefer the units that near to MRT, face the sea, and facing North West.

We on the other hand, prefer the units facing South West.

Though we may not be able to see the sea, which most likely will only last for a year or so, but I'm pretty sure that our hse will be so much cooler. I used to stay at a unit with the afternoon sun at my room. The room was always burning hot every afternoon. Even if we switch on the air con til 18 degree, we still felt as if we were in the oven. It's really that jialat.

Thus, when we choose the units for our future home, we are careful with the direction that it is facing as I do not want to enter an oven every evening. We also did not choose the top floor which might be hot as heat might come in fr the top/

The unit we chose, though will still haf some afternoon sun but it will be much cooler! We wanted to get the South East unit but it is just next to the pavailion where all the weddings, funerals or any other events will be held. Kids will also be playing at that area. So in order not to be too disturbed by the noise from there, we decided not to get that good facing unit.

Anyway it is also good tat no1 fight with us on the units we prefer.

And so there we are, having our preferred unit on the 15th floor. And we are one step closer to our future!

I cant wait for it to be ready!!!

我要走了

两年多前，我加入了目前的公司。这是我毕业后的第一份工作。说真的，当时的我并没有特别喜欢或特别向往做projects.因为说真的，我根本不知道这份工作究竟是做什么的。当时的我，还蛮想要做记者的。但是，这projects的job offer比报馆的早，于是就签约，成了目前公司的一份子。

开始工作后，觉得自己的工作很有意义，也觉得自己很喜欢自己的工作。常常和身边的朋友说，我真得很幸运，毕业后第一分工就能找到自己那么喜欢的一份工，太太太幸运了。

但是，渐渐的，我开始觉得我对这份工的热忱似乎渐渐消失。从每天开开心心去做工，变成每天拖着脚步上班去。可说是360度的大转变。为何？我想原因有好几个。但不管原因是什么，我觉得是该走了。

想想，我在这里两年多，学了很多东西，但是我还要继续在这里吗？我是否该去其他的地方看看外面的世界。这两年多来，我曾经问过自己，我是否想要试试看其他的工作呢？如果我继续呆在这里，我会满足吗？我还年轻，不就是应该出去闯闯，学学新的东西，说不定还有很多其他我同样喜欢的工作呢？

对我而言，工作占据了生活的一大部分。我们每天花在工作上的时间，比吃饭、睡觉、出去、陪家人、陪朋友、陪伴侣的都还要多，那么我一定要做一份我喜欢的工作，才能开开心心的过每一天。

但说真的，要找一份自己真的喜欢的工作，说来容易，做起来却是难啊！

从几个月前开始找，到申请，到等电话，到去面试，到再等电话，不容易。就因为申请的工作都是自己有兴趣的，所以就更紧张了。

从第一次面试，到接到电话叫我去第二次，到之后以为没希望却又接到好消息，这一路来，我的内心是多么的害怕、多么的焦虑，然后终于松了一口气。

我目前的公司不需要我们呈交辞职信，只需要上网按个按钮就行了。

今天早上，我按了。

那一刻的心情，是复杂的。

开心是因为将要做另一份我喜欢的工作。

紧张是因为将要面对另一个新环境。

害怕是因为不知道我是否能够适应那一边的生活。

伤心是因为我将要离开了。

两年多，说长不长，说短不短。但是在目前的公司也有很多美好的时光。我真的很高兴能够认识了这么多的同事，更高兴能够交了这么多的好朋友。有很多时候，战场上都是敌人，很少能够交到谈得来的好朋友。也要谢谢‘长辈们’对我的照顾，让我在这两年多里学了不少东西。

一起在pantry吃饼干、一起去吃午餐、一起去逛街、一起在rec room打电动、玩foosball、一起去看戏、一起去旅行、一起去site recee、一起八卦等等的点点滴滴，开心不开心的，我都不会忘记，我都会把它们放在我心中的一个角落，关上门，上个锁，永远都会牢牢地记住。

接下来的路是怎样的，我真的不知道。只希望一切顺顺利利吧。

Zi Zai Vegetarian

Last Sat was 1st day of the mth (in chinese calendar), after going to HDB hub and site visit at Punggol, Lubby and I brought my parents to have vegetarian food at Tampines area.

Consulted Cass as she is a vegetarian, and she recommend me to read her sis blog abt all the vegetarian food and found this outlet at Tamp area.

Went there to try and I would say that the service is gd and the food is gd too!

We ordered a few dishes and shared.

As read on Cass sis blog, the prata is nice and thus we gave it a try too. And indeed it was very nice! It is cripsy and not oily at all! And we just keep eating and eating.

The dishes we ordered includes the mixed vege.. which I like also since I like to take vege anyway.. haha

Sweet and sour pork.. its nice.. lubby ate a lot.. :x

Hot plate tofu.. the sauce is very nice.. esp to take with rice.. yum yum

and also cai pu fried egg.. but I would prefer more cai pu coz im a cai pu fan.. hehe..

Overall the food is not bad and I would say its worth a try, even if u are not vegetarian. Like Lubby, who is sumone who cant live without meat and dun like vege, he find the food not bad and he was surprisingly not hungry til dinner time!

Sicky Me

Yes I'm sick again...

My fam doc really should give me a VIP card as I visit him like almost every mth, or once every 2 mths or less...

Was already feeling a bit unwell in the morning. Took flu med in office. Then felt a bit warm and tot fever might be coming, so quickly pop 2 panadols.

After work, went to see doc as I know the flu or sore throat wun disappear on their own and I knew for sure they will just worsen.

When the doc see me, he asked, wats wrong this time? I said, sore throat again lor. Then he looked thru my records and said, it's quite frequent huh.. I said, yah. dunno why, I already am taking vit c everyday leh..

Had no choice but to take that super ex and strong antibiotics again.. just 5 days of antibiotics cost me $36. Together with other med, I donated $56 to the clinic.

Lucky I went to see the doc, coz the pain in my throat worsen at night. Just by swallowing saliva, it already hurt like siao.. :(

And throughout the night, I couldnt really slp coz I keep waking up coz of the pain and swollen feeling I have. Moreover, I was having block nose.

This morning, I could hardly talk coz of the pain and the swollen throat. As I had MC from the doc yst, I decided to rest at home and not spread the germs to my colleagues in office also..

This morning, I could feel my

Our Love Nest

So looking foward to it.

We received the letter from HDB on Friday. Our appt to select our units will be on 1st Oct 2009 at 2.15pm. :)

Went down to TPY HDB Hub todae with my parents to take a look at the 3d model. Well we have more or less decided the blks and units we prefer. We will need to come up with a list of the units.. maybe 55 of them since our que number is 55. But of coz we hope we can get those in the top of our list! *pray hard*

Drove down to Punggol site to take a look and feel so excited.. trying to image how it will be when our flats are built and we will be staying from there.. so nice!

I'm sooooo looking forward to having our own place! :)

Samsung Omnia II

Got part of my bday present in advance today.. Samsung Omnia II.

After getting it, tried to use it.. but I can only say tat smart phone is really smart, and it just shows me how stupid I am.

I might need a long time to adapt to this fone.

It's really very very different from the normal fone.

And I have already encountered sooooo many problems.. sianz..

But I still like this fone and I'm sure after some time I will be able to use this fone like a normal fone and being able to know its function at my finger tips!

Anyway thanks Lubby for the advance bday gift! Muacks!

Happy Photos

Just some random happy photos~

I was in love with this ring. Everytime when we drove pass any bus with this ad, I would see, look, stare.. went to the stall to take a look at the real thing some time back. Not as nice as the pic.. and it's EXPENSIVE. $21k... -_-

The teddy from the flowers Lubby got me. Brought him out the other time. Cute teddy.

Bear and Pig kissing~ haha.. I tot they would have been bored sitting next to each other for so many days already.. so put them in such a position which they can kiss all day all night... wahahaha...

Felt like painting my nails this way, with two colours.. and so I did it. :)

Guys keeping eyes open

Was on the topic of r/s and guys with my colleagues today.

Is it true that many of the guys out there actually keep their eyes open big big for potential candidates out there? even if they haf gf already, they will see see look look, if there is sumone out there who is more pretty, attractive etc, he may juz dump the current one and go for the new ger?

Of coz I am not saying ALL guys are like tat? But is it tat most guys are like tat?

We have many examples ard us. Guys going after gers that have big boobs, trying their luck with pretty gers, flirting ard with pretty gers... even if they are already attached. Some may even be prepared to break up with the current gf just for some other ger out there.

Of coz guys will not have that thinking or making that move if the ger did not send any approving signals..

After trying luck with ger A, wooing her by all means, no results or she ended up with some other guy, or she already has a bf, the guy will change his target to another ger which he may find her attractive.

Instead of just putting all his effort and time on one particular ger, why not throw a fishing net and see if he can catch more fishes. The guy can try his luck with many gers at the same time, calling different gers every night, going with different gers everyday etc, jsut to try his luck to find the most suitable one.

Is it true that when guys reach a certain age, maybe 30 or 30+, if they are not in a r/s, or in an not so happy r/s, they will start looking out for potential partners. They will jsut try one after another, til they find a ger who can accept them. Therefore we see examples when ger A turn down this guy, this guy will try to date ger B. Or comments like 'i should have wooed her last time'when the guy see the ger is in a r/s.

Again I stressed that Im not saying all guys are like tat, but the life examples ard us is just proving us correct that some or most guys are like tat. And this may affect the single ladies' thinking. Single gers will not like guys to be like tat, if she wans to have a serious r/s. Single gers will worry that she might get cheated or hurt by such guys. And these guys with such behaviours or thinking will just create a longer distance between themselves and the gers. They are not giving the single gers any confidence. Instead they are just taking all the confidence that single gers might have earlier on.

So guys, what are ur opinion? wat are ur thinking?

Organ Transplant

Dr Ken brought the computer to the hospital yst for a full body check up. He diagnosed that it needed an organ tranplant badly. However, there was no suitable donar~ And we might haf to wait for a few mths before we can get a suitable donar for the computer.

Therefore, after my event, Dr Ken and I went down to SLS to purchase the organ needed. And then we went back to the hospital and Dr Ken performed a 5hours plus operation on the computer. The computer had a successful motherboard transplant. At least I hope so.

Hopefully my computer will stay healthy and guai guai as I have spent so much money, time, and effort (by Dr Ken) on this illness. Hopefully it has fully recovered from the sickness!

My Favourite

Met Lubby after work to go Comex as I need to get a new monitor. Lubby surprised me with Royce Chocolate Potato Chips~ The other time I kept saying I want to eat, but everytime when we went Suntec, I was always sick and thus couldn't eat and so didn't buy. And then sometimes I just felt too sinful and thus asked him not to buy. And todae when I reached Suntec before him, suddenly I was thinking abt this! And the next thing was he gave me this little surprise. :) We always haf 心灵感应 one lor.. :P Anyway opened it at home and it was nice! salty and sweet... my mummy likes it and my brother likes it too!

Anyway back to Comex. We went there early at 5+ and it was already so crowded~ Lubby walked in frt of me, pulling me behind him. He said that he bumped into ppl dunno how many times. And there was this Ah Neh who tot Lubby would give way, but of coz he didn't, and end up the Ah Neh bumped into Lubby's chest and got bounced back! wahahah.. too bad I didn't get to witness that!~ Anyway following close behind him, I still ganna knocked, bumped or wateva quite many times.. -_-

Wanted to get my Philips very nice monitor but Lubby read some reviews and concluded that it does not really worth $399. And so we went ard searching for other monitor and decided to bring LG some 3000 model home.. it's pretty and quite cheap! It costs only $238.

I also got myself a set of wireless keyboard and mouse which Lubby felt it was a good deal~ :) And the total $ I spent for all these items are less than the Philips monitor that I wanted to get last time!

And then we went home and Lubby helped to fix my monitor, keyboard and mouse but who noes, my cpu is still sick~! It just auto shut down.. :( Lubby spent abt 1+hr and yet still couldn't find out wat's wrong and so he decided to bring it home for a full body check up. And if needed, he will perform operation(s) on my cpu and hopefully I can see my cpu soon!!! Thanks Lubby~

最近，我再追看《心星的泪光》。

某一集播完后，有一段短短的《星星的泪光》MV。看着看着，不禁流下了泪水。我想，如果你有看着部戏，你就会知道我留下眼泪的原因。如果你没看过这部戏，也没关系，一边听听这首好听的歌曲，一边看看美美的关颖吧。

The Built-with-love-computer

is sick.. :(

All the while, the monitor has been throwing temper every now and then. And all I have to do is switch it off and den on again and it will be fine.

But the day before yst, it started to get serious. And yst, it has officially bid gd bye to me. Ya lubby said that the monitor is very old (he dig it out from some place of his hse and let me use first..) and that's y it is dead...

But I was still hoping for a miracle to happen today and so I tried to switch on my computer and see if the monitor is working.

After I pressed the power button, not only there is nuthin shown on the screen (which might be normal since the monitor is dead alr yst..), the keyboard light is not on, and there is no sound from the CPU (when I can usually hear the sound quite clearly whenever I switch on the computer). Then the next thing, I held the power button to switch it off BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE!!! Have to switch off the main button at the back of the CPU. And after trying a few times, the same problem occurs...

There is nuthing I can do now.. except to wait for my personal IT expert to do a check on Thursday.

Really hope that my CPU will be ok. It's built with love and no other PC can be replaced! :(

Boots

Just when I've decided not to get any boots and just wear the old ones I have, we saw this pair of Timberland boots which is quite nice and comfy.

Tried it on and though it's just junior size, it suits me!~ The ladies ones are actually $100 more than the junior ones... and since I can fit into the junior one, and they look the same, so I just got the junior ones. The funny thing is, the bigger size of the junior ones, the more expensive it is. Size 34 cost $139 and size 37.5 (which is the size that I got) cost $199!

And Lubby has kindly offered to buy the boots for me! (with my reimbursement of $0.50 to him for yi si yi si..) I'm sumone who wun wanna spend so much on a pair of shoes or even on myself, but Lubby said that this is a very gd pair of boots and worth the money, so we got it lor. And since he offered to get me this, and since I would rather spend the same amt of money on him instead of myself, I got him a new tripod! :)

I will have to season my boots by wearing them at home to walk ard, squat and jump, and even to slp, as suggested by my dearest Lubby. haha. Now I have nice, comfy and durable boots for my China trip, and Jap trip next year, as well as future trips to colder countries! :)

Balloting Result

Thank you HX for informing me that the ballot result is out! Coz the letter from HDB mentioned it will be end of Sept and so we didn't go and check the status.

After receiving the sms, I immediately logged into HDB website and checked our que number.

Total number of 5-room flats: 154, and our balloted que position is 55.

Thank god!!!!!

I would think tat, with this number, we are quite confirm in being able to get a unit, and maybe if lucky enough, we will be able to get the unit we prefer.

However, I'm very worried about one thing. We will be selecting the flat in Oct 2009 and I will be out of SG for 1wk+ during that month! I'm so worried that our appointment will fall on that period of time! I'm not sure if it is ok tat only one party go over to select, if ok den Lubby can go if the appt date is during that wk when I'm not ard. Because I'm worried tat if we cant make it for the appt, they will push us back to the back of the que and then we have less units to choose from! :(

Oh man.. I can only pray hard that the appt will be before or after my holiday.

Dear God, Please help us!

The Reason

I have been eating a lot recently, despite the fact dat I noe I should stop eating. I have been snacking non stop, in office or at home or when watching movie (I dun used to snack during movies one lor!).

And as a result my tummy is getting bigger and bigger, arms getting more and more flabby, face getting rounder and rounder, despite the fact that I do exercise still...

All these are happening more frequently nowadays.

And I think I know what is the reason.

I am having eating disorder. Not not eating, but eating non stop.

Whenever I'm feeling angry, sad, unhappy abt the things happening to me, stressed...

That's bad! But I can't stop myself from eating because of all the shitty things that are happening, from Monday to Friday. Weekends are the only 2 days when I can escape from the irritating system, disgusting people, stupid suggestions and comments.

At this rate that this is going, in no time, I will become a big fat pig!

So, how to be slim again?

Only when I can be away from the irritating system, disgusting people, stupid suggestions and comments forever...

And when will it be?

My Little Prince

The moment we stepped into Lubby's hse, Ryan asked me to read story books to him. I asked if it's ok for me to finish my dinner first, before reading to him, and he said NO! OMG.. so naughty! So I asked him to sit next to me at the dining table, so I can read to him and eat at the same time.

And this naughty boy obviously noes the words of the books but he jia jia say dunno and want me to read to him. And half way thru the books, he will even asked me questions like 'what is this?' while pointing at the pic. After I answer him he will say 'yes!'. So it becomes Teacher Ryan and student Vivian instead!

Then I gave him the doraemon toy I got from eating Happy Meal during lunch. I wanted to get him the new one, apple tree pen but I tot since they still have last wk's offer, the rolling stamp, it will be nicer for him to play. And the moment he saw the toy, he knew he needed paper to stamp. I think he has got one at home already. Anyway, we played with the rolling stamp. And yes he screamed and giggled and laughed so loud! haha. Then he folded the paper into half and said that it is a laptop~ and he taught me how to use it! When I asked for a mouse, he gave me the rolling stamp to use as the mouse.

Then he gotta go home early as todae is the 15th day of 7th month. So I bid bye bye with hugs and kisses from him. So sad.. didn't get to play with him much.. but no worry, I will see him again tomorrow! :)

First Run

After dunno how many months. Didn't run coz was lazy, also coz my ankle was injuired for quite some time.

As my ankle has recovered (no more anyhow pain..) and when I wore heels last week I'm quite ok so todae decided to go for a short run on the usual route ard my living area.

Jogged for abt 1.2km and then my ankle started to hurt. Tried to continue but it was getting more painful. In order to prevent myself from being pai ka once again, I stopped my jog and walked. And every step I walked my ankle hurt! :(

In the end walked home for the remaining 1.2km.. haiz.. but I was feeling sad that I couldn't exercise much due to the pain in the ankle, I chose to walk up 16 floors to my hse instead of taking the lift. At least I feel more 'exercised' after the climbing of stairs.

I think I need to start joggin for short distance and slowly increase, so that I wun strain my ankle too much.

The Cute Little Insect

This morning it was raining cats and dogs while I was preparing to go out. When I was about to close my curtain, I saw this little insect resting on my window. I guess the rain was too heavy and thus it chose to take a break and rested on the outside of my window where it was shelted.

It was so cute. It used one or 2 hands and wiped its face! Maybe coz while it was flying in the rain, the rain splashed onto its face and it was wet and thus it tried to wipe off the water! SOOOO cute lor!

Then I closed the curtain and prepare myself to go out. And when I opened the curtain after abt 30 minutes, it was still resting at the same place! haha. I didn't know when it flew away as I gotta go out liao.

Showed Lubby the photo and he said that it was a bee! With 2 pollens at the sides! Maybe the pollens were too heavy and thus it needed a rest!

He Melts My Heart

Went over to Lubby's hse for dinner after the gathering with frens. The moment we stepped into the hse, I saw Ryan. He saw me and said 'Hello Auntie Vivian' and then pulled me to follow him. He said that he wanted to show me sumthing. While he was pulling me, I asked him, 'Ryan, did u miss me?' and then he shyly nodded his head. OMG my heart melted on the spot.

Told him that I need to go toilet urgently. His mummy asked him to have his dinner first while waiting for me to go toilet. He said no he will wait for me in the kitchen, he will stand there. And then he really stood in the kitchen waiting for me.

The moment I stepped out of the toilet, he pulled me to the room and showed me that he was watching Michael Jackson's concert.

After dinner, he pulled me to play with him again. :) I'm officially his playmate for some time already. haha. Played some 'football' with him and he was soooo happy and screamed and perspired like nobody's biz. haha. This boy... really soooo cute!

Then he asked me to be his passenger again while he drove me to places. haha. And everytime when I walked to Lubby's room, he would come over and knocked on the door and said 'Excuse me Auntie Vivian, come here.' haha. And then I will have to sit beside him while he played with his things.

Then his daddy came to pick him and his mummy home and before he left he came to say bye to me, hugged me and kissed me shyly. Then he said bye to Lubby too and because he usually does not hug or kiss Lubby and dunno why today he walked over and like wan to hug dun wanna hug, very shy like tat. In the end he hugged lubby before running off shyly. SO CUTE!

The thought of him saying he missed me, asking me to play with him, looking for me all the time, hugging me, playing crazily just makes me smile and smile, from the bottom of my heart.

Love Ryan so much!

Happy 1 Year 3 Month Anniversary!

Muacks!

Lubby came to pick me up from work todae as he was on 2 days MC (yst and todae). We went to With a Pinch of Salt. I been wanting to go there ever since I saw it from a fren's fb photo. Finally, we've made our way there.

I simply love the deco of the cafe.. very cosy.. very sweet.. very cute! There are tables and chairs, as well as sofas.. and there are also board games and free wireless at the cafe. Ordered some food and the food is alright, average la.. but I was still pretty much into the very nice deco there. I realised I really love places with cute deco, special settings, special themes.. hehe

Before going home, I was craving for ice cream from Ice Cream Chef and thus we went there. Wow they have got some different flav today and we tried holicks plus milo peng ice cream, with kinder buneo.. is very very yummy.. we both love tat alot.. hehe..

Though it was just a short evening but I had lots of fun. :) Most importantly I am ablt to spend time with my lubby!

Happy 1 Year 3 Mth Anniversary to you my dear lubby!

Muacks!

Happy Wkend

Fri night went to KTV with colleagues cum friends. Sang at TopOne @ Bugis. Funny thing is some colleagues cum frens of ours were singing with our ex-colleagues at another room at TopOne too. Lucky we didn't sing together as I heard that Ms FF had 7 pages of songs! OMG... like having her own concert? Anyway they cut off our songs and etc at 10pm and said that another grp is coming. But hello, the website said dat any 4hrs from 6-11pm. We reached at 6.30pm so shouldn't we finish at 10.30 instead of 10pm sharp? Makes no sense!

Sat went to meet Lubby after his lesson. Went to TBP to haf lunch at the foodcourt and then movie 'The Proposal'. It has been a long long time since I last ate pop corn and thus Lubby bought a box for me to munch. But it was very wasteful coz we couldn't finish and threw away 2/3 of the box of pop corn.

Anyway we enjoyed the movie. Though the plot is very simple, very predictable but yet it was funny and relaxing. We like certain part of the movie a lot but well as I know that some of my frens have yet to catch this movie, I shall not be a spoiler! :P

After the movie, we went to Marina Barrage for photo shooting again. Stayed for a while and drove to Bugis for dinner. Both of us were craving for steamboat and jsut nice we parked next to this steamboat shop which was already v crowded at 6pm. Thus we decided to try that shop, 中华火锅. It's abt $21/pax with free flow of drinks and yes my fav, SEAFOOD!!! As Lubby doesnt eat seafood, so I haf to make 2 pax $ worth it and ate a lot of prawns and crabs. :P Yum Yum.

We both were so full after the meal and proceed to Marina Barrage again for night time photoshooting. Had a lot of fun taking photos and doing stupid post. Shall go for more photoshooting session again!

Today met up with 'Vivien' after her church and went to Chinatown to find out more abt our China trip. We booked ur Beijing, ChengDe and TianJin tour at SA tour for 16Oct to 24Oct. YES! Finally I'm going to China! I was super disappointed with the cacellation of my Beijing trip when I was in JC and didn't have a chance to go there until now~ WOO HOO~ To me, I feel tat, being a chinese, we should at least go to China once, climb the Great Wall, visit the Gu Gong etc then we can call ourselves the Chinese! Anyway they were having promotion, if you fly on a certain specific date, there is 1 for 1 promo for SQ. And thus we are flying to China with less than $1k per person. I'm so excited!~

2009-08-19T23:45:00.002+08:00

I have what they need.

I met their requirements.

Why don't they give me a chance?

Don't I deserve a chance?

I really dun understand.

I just need that chance.. give me, please... :'(

洪卓立

最近在追看《王子看见二公主》，发现里面的第二男主角“夏宽”好可爱~ 加上在里面的角色是属于blur blur的，害羞型的男生，太可爱了吧~ 但是他一讲话，广东话口音还蛮重的。在第5集里，他清唱了一首广东歌，突然让我爱上他咯~

在youtube找了些他的MV。他的歌还蛮好听的哦~

洪卓立，这个名字我记牢了~没想到他的英文名叫Ken，那么巧哦~:P 还有还有，他的某些角度，有点像郑元畅哦~

当然，他还有好多歌，就不放上来了~

Lanyard

YES! Finally found one for my hp~

Been searching but couldn't find. Finally found one that I like at Vivo todae~

2009-08-16T11:05:00.005+08:00

THE ONE

My friend asked me 'How do you know that Kenneth is THE ONE?'

Sometimes, I guess is just the feeling. You just KNOW that he IS THE ONE.

But of coz there are things that contribute to me knowing tat.

1. If you love sumone, u can accept his gd and bad points. Compared to my previous r/s, I can't stand/ accept some things that the guy did. No matter wat, I just hate the bad points of them and cannot bring myself to accept the bad points. But when it comes to Lubby, though I might not agree with some of his doings/habits, but I can still kinda accept them. And I don't find the bad habits irritating.

2. I dun feel stress when we are at the topic of marriage, and sumtimes I find myself thinking abt it too. Comparatively, when the guys from my previous r/s mentioned abt marriage, sumtimes I feel scared/irritated/stressed, or simply dun wanna tok or think abt it.

3. I always find myself dreaming abt our future. How it will be when we get married and haf our own family. How our wedding will be like. How our hse will look like. How our children will look like etc.

And of coz the character of the person is impt to determine if he is THE ONE.

For myself, it is because of the following that makes Lubby THE ONE.

1. He is very caring. He always msn/sms/call me and ask me how I am. He will come and pick me from my gathering and send me home.

2. He is a mighty man. He can do so many things. Fix bicycle, fix/repair computer, fix/set up/ repair almost all electrical applianaces, fix/repair anything at home (my bathroom mirror dropped onto the floor and when we got a new mirror, he helped to drill holes into tiles and put up the new mirror) He can even do wiring for the hse. (He said that next time for our own hse, he will do most of the DIY work so can save $) Basically I feel that his knowledge on anything is so much more than mine or most ppl I know of.

3. He can cook~ hehe..

4. He can tahan my bad temper.. and usually if I'm angry, it wun last too long.

5. He gives me sense of security. Maybe coz he is so big!~ haha

6. He is always so supportive in everything I do.

And of coz there are many more.

I'm really happy that I have found him and I will cherish him, just like how he cherish me. But of coz after hearing all the different stories of how guys are different after marriage, I hope that Lubby will stay the way he is and even better! :P

Tough Fight

The total number of applications received for Punggol Residences as at 10 Aug 2009, 2 days from the closing date, is 4523.

3137 ppl have applied for the 615 4-room units and 1386 ppl for 154 5-room units. The number of applications received is 5.88 times the number of units available.

We are going fight with another 8 ppl for our flat. We only have 11.1% success rate. And if we are lucky enuff to get the ballot, we still have to go thru another round of choosing the units and being able to get the ones we prefer.

Tough.

Very tough.

We can only cross our fingers and pray hard now.

YES YES YES!!!

After 1+ year of lessons, 4 failed test, I've finally passed my driving practical on my 5th attempt todae!

WOO HOO~~~~

I'm proud of myself that I didn't give up even after 4 times failure. I'm proud of myself that I didn't give up on manual and change to auto. :)

My instructor told me that the chinese testers are more 'niao' than the Malays and Indians. And all my 4 previous testers are chinese. But today's is Malay~ So maybe really not tat stritct?

Though at the circuit, there was some little minor mistakes, but I managed to calm myself down and did it slowly.

When we were on the way back to test centre, my tester commented: didn't practise much huh. I was like huh! I learned 1 year plus alr leh.. anyway dun care...

When we were up at the room, he told me didn't practise enough and sometimes very slow on road, might cause accident and bring danger to other drivers. Then I tot, but I did pretty ok in circuit, on main road also no major problems ma.. I am quite confident leh.. y fail leh... Then I saw him take out a log book and write sumthing. I was thinking, all the previous 4 times, no tester did tat, does tat mean I passed? And true enuff I passed!

YEH I AM SO SO SO SO HAPPY!!!!

I can finally drive on the road. I am a certified legal driver le!!!

WOOOO HOOOO~~~~~

Cycling Trip On My Own

Went for a short cycling exercise on Thursday morning before work.

Cycled from my hse to Sungei Bedok to ECP via park connector.

It was quite a gd day to cycle. Sunny, not too hot, and not crowded as most ppl are either at school or at work.

It was my first time of a real proper cycling trip on my own.

Cycling alone might be bored but I can cycle at my own pace, I can enjoy the scenery, and it can help to build my confidence and courage. If not I will always be relying on Lubby.. :)

However when I was tired, there was no1 to encourge me and jia you me la.. :( So what I did is to reward myself by playing the swing when I was on my way back home. :)

And being me, of coz I took some photos during the exercise! :P

Starting point

The other end of Sungei Bedok

The end of PCN to ECP

Very tired ar!

It's only Monday

And I'm already looking forward to the weekend.

And I'm already so tired.

And I'm already dragging myself to work.

And I'm already so sianz of all the things that I will need to do this week.

Haiz.

No motivation to do anything at all.

I dun like this.

I need to have motivation.

I need to be happy.

I need to be cheerful.

But I'm just so tired mentally.

Why am I still here?

I hope tat 观音菩萨heard my prayer tat day and 保佑我。

Done

We have applied for the Punggol Residences BTO.

On the first day of the launch, which was Thursday 30 July, 1432 people already applied for this flat. For 5 room flat, the ratio of application to unit is 3:1.

Scary.

But well, no wonder the high number of application. Location is really gd. The price is reasonable. And as the report mentioned, the resale of 4 or 5 room flats now are quite little.

Thus the reason for the high number of applicants.

Well, we did what we can. We can only leave the rest to fate.

Hopefully, we will be able to hear good results in September. :)

Showflats for Punggol Residences

Went to see the showflats at TPY HDB Hub this afternoon with Lubby.

We both like it.

However, the blocks are parallel to one another and thus we would prefer the blk outside.. facing the LRT. (LRT shouldn't produce much noise anyway)

The layout of the unit is not bad... simple yet cosy.

At night, we went to site recce.. act we just drove past and take a look dats all.. haha. The location is good, is just opposite the mrt.. and if we can get the blk we want, I think we jsut need 2 minutes to reach MRT station?

Looks Good

Received sms and email from HDB abt the new BTO flat at Punggol -- Punggol Residences.

Went to the website and checked it out.

It looks good.

Opp Punggol MRT/LRT/bus interchange. Located within the proposed Town Centre. Close to Punggol Plaza with retail and eating places, wet market and supermarket. Also close to Punggol Waterway and future education centre.

The units are with balcony and well renovated. Landscape deck is pretty . Every blk with direct lift access to the covered carpark.

And price is resonable.

Well, shall we?

Happy 1 Year 2 Months Anniversary

Pretty Pretty LCD

Todae went to SLS with Lubby to shop for somethings for my new pc... oh my new pc has been giving me super many problems ever since the first day it arrived at my place. Lubby tried to solve everything and when he is ard, my pc is so guai, when he went off, my pc throw temper. Going crazy liao lor.. And I was not able to blog for some reason or another with the blogger and internet problems, until now, finally...

Anyway my stupid IE cannot work, cannot display page and thus I'm using firefox now. However, firefox also wanna throw temper, always hang and gotta wait wait wait... but anyway will continue to use firefox and hope it will be guai guai!

Anyway back to SLS.. was walking ard when I saw this super pretty LCD! It is Philips white colour LCD and the monitor is actually surrounded by some blue lights..
It's so so so pretty dat I stopped and went over to touch it, admire it. And then I saw it at so many other shops. And moreover, the white keyboard with gold colour patterns are sooooo pretty and matching to the LCD! OMG!!! Lubby asked if I wanan buy.. well I love it, though it is not tat ex, quite cheap, but then... still.. money not easy to earn. To get the pretty screen + pretty keyboard.. might cost me abt $500. Was telling Lubby, I will get the pretty LCD when we have our own hse.. haha.. tat will be long huh...

Anyway I should not嫌弃my current monitor. Though it is from Lubby's place, no1 is using and is quite old and thus he just passed me.. but can save money so I should save! Anyway this monitor also dying.. but havnt died... so I will just use it first... until the day it says bye to me.

Anyway read up a little on the pretty LCD and it is called Philips Brilliance LCD Monitor 22. It is a lightframe LCD which are a feast for the eyes, designed for people who spend long hours working in front of a computer screen. So the blue colour frame has got its use.. I was thinking if it could be changed to PINK!!! wahahah.. anyway since the LCD is of such a gd use... there adds another reason to 'why-should-I-purchase-the-pretty-pretty-LCD' list...

Oh man.. I keep thinking abt it!!!! Usually this will only happen to bags, clothes, shoes, accessories... but now, this is something different! It is the first time that I am thinking an electronic items/IT gadget/computer related stuff after seeing it and didn't buy it!

Batam 2D1N

Went to Batam for a wkend getaway on Saturday morning.

Lubby came to fetch me in the morning. Drove to Harbour Frt, parked the car and went for Mac breakfast there. Yup his car was parked at HF for 2 days coz after calculation, the carpark charges for 2 days are alrite, maybe even less than the total cost of us taking taxi.

After breakfast went to collect our tickets and then it was waiting time again. Finally we got onto the ferry and then off we went~ Didn’t eat the seasick medicine and heng I nv got seasick.

Reached Batam at around lunch time. Upon check in, the lady ask if we were there for a honeymoon or anniversary? And she said ‘if you are on anniversary, we will…’ and before she finished her sentence, Lubby said ‘no’ and she said ok nvm. I think we might get some mysterious gift or what if we were there to celebrate our anni! Should have said yes huh.. Anyway we got our room upgraded free of charge to Cabana room. And it was damn far away la.. it was the 3rd last Cabana along the stretch~

The room was quite big. But air con not strong! Anyway they have decorated the bed with rose petals. We even got 2 pairs of orange slippers. And one cool thing abt the toilet is that the roof is actually glass! U can see the sky~ and the bathtub was also decorated with petals…

Put down our things and off we went for lunch. We did not look at the menu and sumhow decided to get the buffet at S$14. WASTE $ LA! Coz the food selection was limited and not nice!! Should have just ordered their dishes or meals.

Then it was swimming time~ when we walked over to the pool it was raining! But we didn’t care and just went ahead with the swim and then the sun was out after a while~ And I didn’t put sunblk coz it was raining. Anyway we just swimmed, nua-ed, took photo with my new water-prove camera, played water basketball. It was relaxing and fun~ =)

Next up was our massage. Walked to the building and we were led to a small hut where there were beds and a bathtub. It was my 2nd time doing a massage and it was really relaxing. But Lubby was feeling rather uneasy coz he said he did not like to have other ladies touching him. Haha. And one funny thing is when he opened his eyes in the middle of the massage, the lady was wiping off her sweat! Haha. Lubby said that the lady was using all her strength to massage his big big body. Haha. And silly Lubby was in pain coz she massaged him so hard and yet he just gek his muscle which ended up more pain. Silly Lubby should just inform them ma. After the 1 hr massage we were entitled to 30min of herbal bath. Nice. =)

Then we went back for a bath before going for our candlelight dinner. We were allowed to either have the set meals or the BBQ buffet and we chose the latter. Though the food selection was more than lunch, but the food was still not v nice. There was live band singing and the singer kept walking ard to ask ppl to sing. There was this uncle who has got quite a gd voice and he sang a few songs! Haha. Then they called out some birthday boy’s/ger’s names and they were invited up and each given a small cake. With all of us singing bday songs, they celebrated their bday with so many of us. So sweet.
After dinner, time for bowling. We were given one free game each. But all the while I didn’t like bowling coz I always do not have any strength to throw the ball and thus it will always end up in the drain! And this time round it’s worse and thus I gave Lubby to play my game too.

And perhaps it was because of the massage or the swim, I fell aslp very soon. But the air con was damn hot that I perspired a lot and keep waking up. I even woke up in the middle of the night because I got tummy ache! And then Lubby also woke up and had diarrhoea.

The next day we went for breakfast, which was of limited choice of food and most were not nice again. Then we packed and checked out and took the free shuttle bus to Nagoya Shopping Mall. Heard fr HX that the tshirts there are cheap and thus made my way there and bought myself 2 tops only. Because the sizes are kinda small for the big fat me! =( Should have bought more because the tees are really super cheap. S$4.60 for 2 tshirt! But of coz the material was not good and I can forsee the tees being out of shape after wearing 2-3 times? But still it was a very gd deal! We then had A&W for lunch. Shopped around for more but Lubby was kinda disappointed because he thought he could get perfume there but everything was either ‘chiong’ or no brand and thus he was not able to get anything.

Went back to hotel and waited for the van to send us to the ferry terminal.

As I received an sms fr YT that she really got the C brand bag as there were really sales, we decided to go to the Raffles City outlet to take a look too. Saw one which is white and silver and original price was $600++ and after discount it was $400++. Tempted to get but the sales person said that it was not a everyday bag as the leather was sprayed with silver paint and it might drop due to wear and tear. And thus we have decided to go to the TAKA outlet and take a look another day.

It was a very fun and relaxing wkend and I wanna go for more~ =)

The Weekend

Friday night was KTV session with colleagues. Think coz drank a bit and din rest well, on top of my sore throat, and all the singing. The next day (Sat) when I woke up I was feeling warm. But after a while, I felt ok.

Lubby and I wanted to go cycling but the dunno-how-to-predict-weather me told him tat the sky looked dark and cloudy and thus we cancelled our cycling trip. Went to SLS to get sumthing instead. And after lunch I was feeling pretty warm again. And Lubby was worried coz I am feeling warm, having sore throat, coughing a little, nose dun feel well too! So we decided to go his hse and take a rest first b4 little Ryan's bday celebration at night. Took the fever med and caught a nap and I was feeling much better.

And then the bday boy arrived and it was our play time again. And this cheeky boy is sooooo noty. He was 'driving' and asked me to be his passenger. Then he went off to do sumthing and so I went into Lubby's room. Then he say where is my passenger? Then I heard uncle asked him sumthing like where and he said with a sulking face, at one corner of the living room, ' in the room'. And I managed to caught his expression coz I was already on my way out to play with him. Then he didn't let me this passenger off anymore. When he walked off, I will stand up and then he will say I'm done and come back to drive. haha. And there was one time I was in the kitchen and he screamed, 'Auntie Vivian, where are you????' He's VERY loud! Though it can be quite tiring to play with him, but I had lotsa fun. :)

Then it was time for him to open his big big present from his mummy. His mummy was bluffing him tat it was her dollies and asked him to help open. He was tearing the wrapper half way and then his mummy asked him sumthing and he said, it's not for boys. Then as he tore the wrapper more and more, he realised it's his toys! and he was damn damn happy.

And then, it was time for all of us to help him fix his toys.. haha. And because of that toy he was not hungry even after everyone finished dinner. haha. And he even said 'I dun need dinner'. Noty boy. And because the set does not come with cars.. so lubby and I went to the 7eleven and got him 3 toy cars to play with. :)

After dinner, it was a busy time for lubby as he gotta help set up a mini arcade car racing place! Uncle has this PC racing game and lubby helped to connect to the TV and after all the hardwork (really hardwork.. so much things to connect and settle and a lot of problems arised) we all can finally play the racing game! And of coz little Ryan love that game soooo much that he dun even wanna go home.

This morning after seeing the doc again as sore throat still yet to recover and yst having a bit of fever, Lubby and I went to shop~ I bought quite a lot of things. Bought 2 nail polishes and one concealer from Face Shop, themometer and bed room slippers from Watsons, belt from BHG for lubby, Moo Moo brand hse key pouch for lubby. And the main aim was actually to get myself another pair of shoes and we finally got it from Pazzion and I only paid 20cents for it! (thanks lubby~)

And I think my laptop is getting siao and dying soon.. but lubby said he will build a pc for me! :) but dat also means my $ willbe flying away again~~~ but no choice la.. PC is a need ma..
